    MASTER THREAD: Auto Wiper functionality, complaints, praise, etc.

    absolutely agree that automatic wipers are the worst I have ever seen. I have NEVER had a car with worse automatic wipers, and to quote Monty Python “I’ve had a few!”

    Tips for removing front license plate mount applied over PPF?

    I went to a PPF installer on how to remove something stuck to the PPF and he said to use heat and slowly peel it off.

    How’s the Y

    Simple fix for wind noise that I learnt when I had a diesel: wear ear plugs. Yes I know, should not be necessary, but the difference in comfort is amazing. And you will still hear all the important traffic noise!

    Sheltering in Place - Charge or not

    Yup that's what I do: carry Lysol wipes, disinfect all the door handles and elevator buttons you touch going to and from your car, and don't get out of it during your drive. In my case I live alone and am the only driver, so no chance of picking up or passing on anything. And the option to get...

    Model Y - Hands On

    “The seats are 3.5” taller than the Model 3...”. Could you please measure how much higher overall they are from the ground? I am a paraplegic and need to transfer into these seats ( my Model Y was ordered last March!) but I don’t even know if I can physically get in! It depends on overall seat...

    MASTER THREAD: Comprehensive Road-Course Modification Guide — Optimizing the 3 for the track

    Schroth: I wanted to mention that the Schroth BMW E90 Quick-Fit Harness does work in the Model 3. Shout-out to our fellow forum members for figuring this out. I have been happy with mine. It keeps me tight in the seat and allows me to use my HANS. Given the lack of bolstering on the Model 3 seat...

    Things my wife said about Navigate on Autopilot tonight

    My wife and I just came back from a 2-month, 24,000km road trip (Canada and US). There were many, many instances where Autopilot and NOA almost got us into accidents, and my wife too asked why we were even using these if it was going to be so jerky and unpredictable. Here is where it was worse...

    Spokane Wa Supercharger?

    Anybody know whether the "arriving soon" supercharger scheduled for Spokane has arrived? Will be driving through there in about 10 days on a "around the US" road trip. There is one in Coeur d'Alene not too far but arriving late at night... Thanks!

    2500 mile round trip AWD ... findings

    I totally agree with your recommendations. Did a "short" road trip 3 weeks after getting my Model 3 (Vancouver to Redway, CA) and used that technique: don't wait until you are down to three electrons, charge around 20 up to 70 and go. Am planning two return trips this summer: Vancouver to San...

    Put on new tires, now the car is handling weird.

    Original fronts are those super efficiency, high mpg (hard compound?) tires and now you put real winters out back. Winters are made to deal with very cold temperatures, and are too soft for "warm" temperatures. Could be the reason for the weird handling... ???

    Model 3 hand control for disability driving

    Hi all; I just got Menox hand controls installed in my Tesla Model 3 (last adjustments done last week). No need to disconnect air bags, no need for wiring diagram etc. It was an expensive proposition because the Menox come from Sweden where the Tesla Model 3 is not yet sold, so no adapting kit...
